Hi Dervy,

Thanks for all the great information, especially all the number crunching! I saw your reddit post on how crit chance and crit damage scale with the crit stat, and had some thoughts.

It seems the crit stat weight is an approximation based on the fact that crit doesn't scale linearly. Some expected value analysis shows that crit scales quadratically (since it has a linear impact both on crit chance and crit damage).

I wanted to try to figure out how that compares to str but I'm a little confused about your formulas for weapon skills and auto-attacks:

Auto-Attacks DPS:
((AA_DMG/33.04+1)*(STR/6.92)*(DET/6715+1)*(1/AA_DELAY)BUFFS)-1.5
What do those values represent? Is it raw DPS? If so, where does the -1.5 come from? In terms of raw damage numbers, I would think 1.5 is negligible.
